9/13 - Resistance Exercise for Impaired Muscle Performance Flashcards
strength
ability of contractile tissue to produce tension
power
work produced by ms over time
(f x d/t)
endurance
ability to perform low intensity, sustained activity over a prolonged time
overload principle
progressive loading (strength)
progressive reps (endurance)
SAID principle
Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demands
- exercise prescribed specific to function
- what is the deficit and how do we address this
transfer of training
carryover of effects from one type of exercise to another
- ex: strength program also improve endurance
only limited evidence, greater support for specificity of training
reversibility principle / detraining
if you don’t use it you lose it
- detraining can happen more rapidly than building up the muscle
what influences the amt of tension able to be generated
energy stores and blood supply
fatigue
recovery from exercise
muscle (local) fatigue
diminished response of muscle
CP (general) fatigue
diminished response of person
threshold for fatigue
level of sustainable activity
what are other factors which influence fatigue
overall health
diet
sleep
what are general factors of fatigue that can impact the possible tension to be generated
muscle/local fatigue
CP/general fatigue
threshold of fatigue
other factors
how does age impact tension generation in normal skeletal muscle
childhood - linear inc in strength to puberty
adolescence - strength levels significantly differ b/w sexes
adulthood - women reach peak strength at younger age than men
late adulthood - decline of 15% or greater each year >60yo
what are psychological and cognitive factors which influence tension generation
attention
motivation
feedback
where do you see physiological adaptations to resistance exercise
neural adaptations
skeletal muscle adaptations
vascular & metabolic adaptations
adaptations of connective tissues
what neural adaptations are seen to resistance exercise
inc EMG without hypertrophy
- motor learning & improved coordination
what skeletal muscle adaptations are seen to resistance exercise
hypertrophy - inc size of ms fiber
- inc protein (actin & myosin) synthesis
hyperplasia - inc number of ms fibers
- limited evidence
muscle fiber type adaptation
- IIB converted to IIA
what vascular and metabolic adaptations are seen to resistance exercise
muscle hypertrophy
- dec capillary bed density as myofilaments inc
what adaptations of connective tissues are seen to resistance exercise
tendons, ligaments, connective tissue in ms
- tendon/ligament tensile strength inc w resistance training
bone
- ms strength correlated w bone density
how is alignment different from stabilization
alignment of muscle fibers
- changes the primary mover
alignment of gravity
stabilization in that position
describe how the position of the hip affects the alignment of the muscle fibers
if flexed»_space; more TFL
if extended»_space; more glut med
how can intensity vary and what determines this
submaximal vs maximal exercise loads
- considered desired goal of program
what about the initial level of resistance (load) should be documented to assess training effects
repetition maximum
- provides baseline to measure progress
- trial & error
training zone
- % of RM
- initially low for untrained patients
what components of volume are determinants of resistance exercise
reps and sets
- consider goals of exercise activity & individual patient
describe the impact of exercise load and reps on desired muscles
improve ms strength = high load/low reps
improve ms endurance = low load/high reps
what does the exercise order have an impact on
fatigue
- large ms groups before small
- multi-joint exercises before single joint
what should be considered when prescribing frequency of exercise
inc intensity and volume = inc recovery time
what program duration is needed for neural adaptations
2-3 weeks
what program duration is needed for hypertrophy
6-12weeks
what are components for the mode of exercise that should be considered (6)
type of ms contraction
position for exercise
forms of resistance
energy systems
range of movement
patient & outcome specific
what types of ms contractions are considered for the mode of exercise
concentric
eccentric
isometric
what about the position for exercise should be considered for mode of exercise
WB
non- WB
what about forms of resistance should be considered for the mode of exercise
manual
mechanical
body weight
what about energy systems should be considered for the mode of exercise
aerobic
anaerobic
what about range of motion could be considered for mode of exercise
short arc
full arc
what about the velocity of exercise is important for determining resistance exercise
function specific
force-velocity relationship
- concentric
- eccentric
what is periodization
variability of training for specific goal
how can you integrate function into an exercise program
balance of stability and active mobility
balance of strength, power, endurance
task specific movement patterns during resistance exercise
what are 6 types of resistance exercise
manual and mechanical
isometric
dynamic - concentric/eccentric
dynamic - constant / variable
isokinetic
open chain / closed chain
what is manual resistance exercise and what are the pros of this
provided by therapist
gives you real time feedback
can feel when start to fatigue
can adjust amt of force
- more in mid range, less in end range
what is mechanical resistance exercise
provided by equipment
what is the rationale for using isometric exercise
stability
